⟨1⟩ The Sacred Fire from heaven.
1.
I myself, Śrī-Madhurendrasūri, saw this Fire falling from heaven, here, at the time of the arrival of Śrī-Vīraśakti in 1138 ⟨Śaka⟩.
2.
I have seen the Fire lighting up the directions of space ⟨and⟩ falling from heaven into the kingdom of Śrī-Jayavarman - a great wonder, which I believe will entail good results, ⟨namely⟩ high birth, two ⟨good⟩ eyes, and eminent family. May these be mine!
